Home sweet home...Day 6

Woke up bright and early this morning to go and check out an apartment that Libby loves to see if it could be our potential new home...I think sooooooooo!!!!
We put in our application and deposit and will find out on Monday if we are successful. Like I said, apartments in New York are difficult to get...so fingers crossed this will be my new street...


After that I went to BDC to find out what I should do regarding my dance classes for my program with my injured ankle...I am taking my 2 week break that I am entitled to for my year-long course. i wanted to save a week to go to Mexico, but I will just do those classes in advance before I go. There is no point in trying to fulfill my classes with just yoga and pilates classes when I have come here to have the dance training...so i am just going to do a few pilates and vocal classes these next two weeks (so I don't die of boredom) and spend the remainder of my time packing my apt and focus on this challenge:)

I did Pilates today...
then ejoyed my homemade lunch...
Tuna salad sandwich

Got some vocalizing technique in at Kurt's 1.5 hour technique class...we worked on "Infatuation" by Christina Aguilera which does alot of jumping from chest to mix to soprano voice...so that's always a good challenge.
I then did the Vocal Performance class where I sang "When will someone hear?" from Martin Guerre....my notes that I received from this piece were to make my choices bigger (if I am performing to an arena, the people in the back row should see my intentions), and to have MORE thoughts/choices throughout the section that I performed...not just one emotion to another, but to see the internal dialogue and reflecting that the character is doing as she sings.

I came home sang for 30 minutes working on finding a pop song...still not positive which pop song I think would show off my range but I am hoping to do an acoustic version of "Grenade" by Bruno mars.

Went to dinner with Libby which was delicious and came home to write this blog and chill out...but I have jusst been asked to go out with my Mexican friends...its 10.30pm on a Friday night and I am tired...but I am going to meet up with them. Because next week they fly home:( and I wont see them again until August!!!! So sad...

Have a good night everyone xoxox
